Welcome to Awesometown!

Wow. The Spurs heads must still be spinning this morning. What the heck happened? The Mavs didn't pour in a ton of threes. No Spurs fouled out. There weren't an inordinate amount of turnovers. Maybe the box score will reveal more but it just seemed like the Mavs gradually, methodically built a lead by getting good shots and allowing only so-so shots. Hmmm. Sounds like good basketball. Last night reminded me of one of the first games of the season against the Pistons - a game I attended - in which the Mavs built a 20 point lead at halftime and shallacked the Eastern Conference leaders by almost 40 by the time the night was over. Goes to show what this team is capable of when they put it all together. Now comes another test of their mental toughness. Will there be a let-down when they come home after that whipping?
